Lioness Records

Lioness Records is a British record label, founded in 2009 by British singer Amy Winehouse.

Winehouse stated she was inspired by Berry Gordy's Motown Records, and The Specials' 2 Tone Records to create her own label.

[1] Lioness Records was formed in 2009, due to Winehouse's wish of signing Dionne Bromfield.

Winehouse stated that "the first time I heard Dionne sing, I couldn't believe what I was hearing, such an amazing voice from such a young cat.

[2] The name Lioness Records comes from a necklace, given to Winehouse from her grandmother, Cynthia, bearing a pendant featuring a lioness.
